Congrats from chiefdave BSc. Would love to be able to retrain and switch careers, not really a viable option for me unfortunately. Although to be honest I'm not entirely sure what career I'd change to! There's things I wished I had pursued back in the day but that's a bit different to making a complete change as you rapidly approach 50.
IMO we should stop pushing everyone into degrees straight after a-levels and get people out into the real world so they have a better idea what they want to do and then go to uni later on. Are there any stats for how many people actually end up in careers related to their degrees?
Just bullshit your CV, read up about the industry for a week before the interview and drop into some middle management position where it’ll take ages before you’re found out, at which point you’ve got experience to go elsewhere. Boom new career.
